I don't mean distance yourself from him, but make time away from him to spend with others. You know, once a week, or something, that is a "friend day."
You don't want to look back on your senior year and regret time that wasn't spend with "my friend so and so."
Psycotheis answered Thursday February 21 2008, 9:22 pm: Personally I think its great you guys work so well with each other and want to be together as often as possible. But keep in mind other friends are almost just as important. Cause there will eventually be times you just don't want to see his face or talk to him, and without other friends, your stuck being alone to boil in your problems. I still think its great you guys build the foundation of your relationship higher and higher, but other relationships are needed as well... [ Psycotheis's advice column | Ask Psycotheis A Question ]
